Franchise QB are not 2nd, 3rd, 4th rd picks.......Franchise QB's are 1st rounders.......I like the kids potential pick him in the 4th rd if available groom him to be the back-up.....again Franchise QB are !st round picks....even if you follow Crash Theory(and it is possible) why would you want a mid-round future Journeyman QB......

5 of the 12 playoff teams did not have 1st round picks as their starting qb.

Mark Rypien....Curt Warner....give me a break....I guess you consider Trent Dilfer, ect ect to be Franchise as well.....I agree those other guys were franchise qb but they are the exception to the rule....btw those guys you named combined won 11 SB's........You may as well add Doug Williams to the group......

they were 6th round picks for a reason though....brady was horrible at michigan. He went to a very QB friendly system and really grew into his arm.

You dont just pick up QBs off the street as a general rule, otherwise the steelers would have been fine between bradshaw and roethlisberger

11 super bowls is like 25 percent of them. Thats no small percentage. You just said you don't find franchise qb's in any round other than 1 and I am saying you can. Lets not even talk abt how that mentality has caused lots of busts.
